Well, there is very little difference in these licenses.  On Pypi the package
is distributed as BSD licensed…  That's why I didn't complain about it.

The only real difference between those two licenses is:  BSD *requires* you to
redistribute the license file, MIT does not (It just recommends 'shall be' to
do it).

For a Fedora package this difference is not relevant, since we require to
redistribute the license file along with the SRPM and the binary RPMs by our
guidelines.

I don't get the reason, why the package doesn't comply to the additional Python
guidelines…
